http://www.1001freefonts.com/ is one of the places to find freeware/shareware fonts. Most of them don't come with any licence/readme/whatever.

If they don't come with any license, copyright law applies.

But does this mean I can use them at will for whatever use I want? Just because they don't have a readme file?

what does the copyright say?

Hi list,

I'm getting a little frustrated with fonts. Almost all of the authors (of nice fonts) either don't want you to use them for commercial purposes, want you to email the them _before_ you use it to get permission, want you to pay, or simply you don't know what the hell the author wants.

Thanks alot, -Gezim

I love fonts. There are plenty of 'postcardware' type fonts where you have to send a simple postcard or something to the author. If you like a font enough, I don't see a problem doing that.

Though here's the only site I've found where all are definately free for commercial use. Otherwise, I think you just have to search through the licenses.
